In 2003, Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) began real-time, human-in-the-loop simulations that demonstrated the effect of adding perimeter taxiways. During the tests, air traffic controllers, pilots and officials from DWF, the FAA and NASA evaluated numerous scenarios at NASA Ames Research Center's FutureFlight Central (FFC) and Crew Vehicle Systems Research Facility (CVSRF) to verify the cost benefit and paper studies on the perimeter taxiways.

On Feb. 11, 2011, NASA Ames hosted more than 55 Twitter followers or "tweeps" from 18 states and 5 countries to learn about the Center's research activities. Recent planetary discoveries by the Kepler mission and science flights by NASA's SOFIA aircraft were two featured topics of discussion. The "tweeps" toured several facilities at Ames, including the Kepler labs, where mission data is analyzed; the Vertical Motion Simulator, the world's largest motion-based flight...
